N1  - This qualitative study of Indigenous women‘s experience of homelessness in Queensland and the Northern Territory is not specific to sleeping rough however it is included because it documents service-provider strategies for increasing tenancy sustainability for Indigenous women who have experienced homelessness.
Along with documenting affordability constraints and perceived race-related discrimination, the study provides evidence that violence is another factor that significantly affects Indigenous women‘s housing choices. Cooper and Morris document high levels of experienced violence amongst these women experiencing homelessness (Cooper & Morris 2005, pp.27-30, p.44).
Cooper and Morris find that sustaining tenancies may require support to women in making the transition to a new house, preparing for tenancy with skills development in areas like budgeting, cooking, parenting and urban living skills for women coming from remote areas, material aid in establishing a household, and ongoing personal and social support to overcome isolation and integrate into the local community (Cooper & Morris 2005, pp.104–105).
